Andrea Dietrich Poet Monorhyme

Pierced

Imperfect as we are, how can we
begin to grasp the intensity
of His pain, that immense agony
of suffering for humanity?

To be unblemished, yet have to be
the one to bear such cruel mockery,
body nailed to a cross unjustly,
His heart and soul pierced for you and me.

Rob Carmack March 6, 2015 at 11:35 AM Andrea, your poem reminded me of thoughts I had years ago, soon after my son was born. How much love it took for God to allow his Son to be crucified for us. I would have taken my child back and pushed this planet into the Sun. Congrats and thanks for entering.
